Gift Planning Support from Covenant Trust Company

Contact Covenant Trust Company at 1-800-483-2177 for assistance with the following gifts.

Stock Gifts

Gifts of securities can be a strategically effective way to support the Evangelical Covenant Church.

Gifts from IRA's

Tax-free gifts to qualified charities can be made directly from your IRA. A qualified charitable distribution (QCD) allows an IRA holder to send a donation directly to a public charity while minimizing the effect of taxable income. For traditional IRA owners who must take a required minimum distribution (RMD) from their IRA each year, the QCD provision is an opportunity to meet the RMD requirement. A QCD is a great way to positively affect your tax situation while also helping you achieve your charitable goals. *Qualified charitable distributions are not available for 401(k) or Roth IRA accounts.

Gift Planning

Proper planning can help you and your family realize the greatest benefits from your gifts to the mission and ministry of the Evangelical Covenant Church. This involves choosing the best combination of assets and vehicles to accomplish your charitable, financial and estate planning objectives. Covenant Trust Company is available to assist you and your professional advisors in determining which plan will best meet your needs and objectives.
